Is there any way to customise which languages are installed with Visual Studio 2012? I only want C#, no VB or F# etc.
I'm trying to install Visual Studio 2012 Premium RTM.
The first install page I see this:
and the next I see this:
but there's no option to choose which languages I want to install :-(

If you have Visual Studio open, go to Tools > Get Tools and Features... which opens the Visual Studio Installer. Or, open Visual Studio Installer from the Start menu. From there, you can choose the workloads or components that you wish to install.
You can personalize Visual Studio in various ways to best support your own development style and requirements. Many of your settings roam with you across Visual Studio instances—see Synchronized settings.
If you've already installed it and want to change the location, you must uninstall Visual Studio and then reinstall it. In the Shared components, tools, and SDKs section, select the folder where you want to store the files that are shared by side-by-side Visual Studio installations.
I think thats as much customization as your going to get.

According to those links they [Microsoft] removed then brought back the option for customization. And what you see there is all you get. I know my installation of VS 2012 (upgraded express to ultimate) is only taking up 2 gb so IDK why it is saying it needs 6.

I've raised the point on the Visual Studio installation forum, see what comes of it.
